The A2A Simulations Community

Hey there..I bought the B17 for P3Dv4 recently and I just moved to a new city so last night I got the chance to try it out for the first time. The only sounds that work are the engine running sounds, and the sound that plays when you turn the battery on. Nothing else works. This also happened when I...

is your receiver for the USB headset plugged in?

If so please remove them from the system and restart the computer.

thanks,
Lewis

Just tried that,

and still nothing has changed.

Lol, sorry had to ask as you'd be surprised how often its happened :D LouP makes a good point also, any VR or USB headsets in the mix here? thanks, Lewis Hey again Lewis. As I said earlier in this thread, I have a USB headset but I have tried checking to see if the audio is coming out of it, which ...

Yeah buddy! Can't wait.

Are you using VR? I had this issue if I started the sim before switching back to my speakers after started WMR and before starting P3D. I now start up WMR, switch over to my speakers, then start up p3D. Don't have the Accusim sound problem since following that procedure. LouP Nope, no VR. Makes me ...

Sorry if this sounds silly but just to check you are loading the A2A Accu-sim Cub and not a default P3D cub?

thanks,
Lewis

Yes, it has the A2A 2D popup panels such as the payload and fuel dialog. Ew, default aircraft LOL

Thanks Dan and you're welcome - usually these issues are a lot easier to pinpoint. :? The Prepar3D.cfg can be found in "C:\Users\[UserName]\AppData\Roaming\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v4". By default this is a hidden folder, so you may need to set Windows to show hidden folders . Cheers, Nic...

From when I was 1 year old to when I was 6 years old, my dad had a 602P Aerostar. It was turbocharged and pressurized, and one time he shock cooled both engines and they both had to be replaced. He sold it after that, (saddest day of my life at that point, the night the guys came to get it, he tried...

Hmm - this is a tricky one to pin down Dan. There's most be something pretty unusual about your setup that's preventing the Accu-Sim sound effects for the Cub from playing. It's particularly mysterious because they worked okay when you had the FSX version of the Cub installed which seems to rule ou...

Okay thanks. Could you try deleting the contents of the "Documents\A2A\FSX\PiperJ3" folder just to get your installed J-3 back to an 'as new' condition. Back up these files first if you wish to be able to restore the existing engine hours, etc. Nick Just did that, didn't work either. I no...

Okey doke - did you previously have the FSX version of the Cub installed successfully on this machine? You mention in your opening post hearing the magneto sounds. Thanks, Nick Yes I did, and it always worked fine. FSX is no longer on this machine however. I have thought of reinstalling it just bec...

Thanks for the info Dan. I can't see any obvious clues there, but it might be worth going to the support site for your motherboard and making sure you have the most recent driver for the Realtek audio chip. Also, you mention no AV software, but have you tried setting up an exclusion in Windows Defe...

Okay, thanks for trying. Just to give a bit more info about your setup, please can you run the dxdiag command on your PC and use the "save all information" button to create a text file. Then paste the contents of the file here, or upload the file itself to a file sharing site and post the...

Okay, thanks - that all looks fine. Please could you try reinstalling OpenAL using the standalone Windows installer available here: https://www.openal.org/downloads/. It's possible the issue in your system is related to OpenAL not being able to work correctly for some reason. Please right click the...

Just tried something else.

Worth noting I'm running Windows 7. I went to the security settings for the entire A2A folder in Documents, and set all the checkboxes for everything to "Full control" and restarted P3DV4.

No changes, the problem is still there.
